So I guess it will have to wait until spring
So since I last posted the weather has done the exact opposite of what I hoped it would do. Instead of staying relatively warm (for the Boston area), it has gotten frigidly cold. Instead of not snowing, it has snowed like crazy. The reason for the weather update is that I will not be able to get in a round of golf down the cape next week now. This stinks so when all is said and done and if I am lucky and get on the course in March it will have been almost 8 months of no golf for me. I am going to be frank...THIS SUCKS!!! I need to find a way to get out on the course because if I dont I will be on the hunt for a golf version of a Betty Ford clinic. I would say they might call it a Tiger Woods clinic but as it now turns out his clinic would be less about golf and more about sex addiction. So I guess they might call it a Jack Nicklaus clinic for those addicted to the game of golf. Anyway I just wanted to vent my frustrations with not being able to play the game. But hey my team won the division 2 state championship and got to play at Gillette Stadium (home of my New England Patriots)!! Well I will try to be much better about updating this blog more often and I will use many stories of days of golf gone by to satiate my appetite for chasing the little white ball. Until next time hit em long and striaght!!

Winter depression worse this year
Well it has been months since my last entry and that is because I have been fully engulfed in coaching football for The High School in my district. That being said if I have not had time to blog I have definitely not had time to golf. I have not picked up a golf club since August 14th. It is now December 15th and there is snow on the ground, which means that there will not likely be any golf forth coming. This is a very depressing thought for me for a couple of reasons. The first is that this is truly the longest I will have gone between rounds since I was in middle school. I think I will have to frequent an indoor driving range for much of this winter. The other reason for the depression is that in early August I got a new set of Callaway irons. After the time it took to custom fit and make the clubs and then ship them to my house I only had the chance to play 1 round with them. My game was more consistent and the clubs made a difference! Now I can only assume that my game will have gone down the yellow river (not the famous one in China, but the toilet). I am trying not to think about my lack of golf but it is very challenging. The good news is that in about a week and a half I will be going with Kel down to the cape for the first time since mid August. This is another thing both she and I are missing in a huge way. The cape is like our sanctuary of peace and relaxation. There is truly nowhere else we can just go and relax enjoy life and not have any obligations. We cannot wait to get down there and enjoy life again. Now that I have vented about my lack of golf and the Cape I will close out this post with a ray of hope and sunshine. Maybe if the weather is ok I can get a quick 9 holes in down the cape over break. I hope everyone is having a great winter and remember if you cannot hit em long and straight at least enjoy watching them fly a quarter mile into the woods!
